Cheapest Areas in UK for property prices

[jakeslooking]

Wondering if a website exists that can show where the cheapest property prices are in the UK?

What are you actually after, just information, possible rental properties?

North are where the cheapest houses are at in general, alot of its down to the specific area though - you'll find areas with Universities local are cheap, because of the student lets.

Do you want to buy or let?
Best to search on the top property portals, you should get a good idea of the cheapest places to rent/buy

I can't think of any reason why someone would buy property at "cheapest" prices - not least, because price is local-dependent and therefore relative.

The "cheapest" average prices are in Scotland, but that's probably because of the huge council estates sprawling out from Glasgow and pocketing the rest of Scotland.

Depends on what you are looking for and a rough idea of area, the UK covers a lot of different counties etc.
Certain areas in the northwest are cheap...Depends on type of house/accomodation, size etc and whether you wish to live in a council area or private.
example being ; a three bed terrace on my town (chorley) range from 75,000 - 120,000 approx......but just down the road in wigan/leigh area the same sort of house could be 55,000 - 75,000.
You would have to be more specific. And look at reasons why an area is cheaper too!

There are sites that give you the actual sales figures - taken from land registry so very accurate - for properties in their actual post code areas if that would be of any help?

I think if I remember rightly you can check local average house prices on find a property.

there is a site that gives real sales figures for property sales, you can search by post code, when i find the link i will post it here.
